Strategy. To achieve its objective of long-term capital growth, the Overseas Fund will invest primarily in equity securities (e.g., common stocks) of non-U.S. companies, the majority of which are traded in mature markets (for example, Canada, Japan, Germany and France), and may invest in countries whose economies are still developing (sometimes called emerging markets).

The Fund also may invest up to 20% of its total assets in debt instruments (e.g., notes and bonds). The Fund may invest in debt instruments generally without regard to their credit rating or time to maturity. Investment decisions for the Fund are made without regard to the capitalization (size) of the companies in which it invests. The Fund may invest in any size company, including large, medium and smaller companies. The Fund may invest in gold and other precious metals, and futures contracts related to precious metals. The investment philosophy and strategy of the Overseas Fund can be broadly characterized as a value approach, as it generally seeks a margin of safety in its investment purchases with the goal being to avoid permanent impairment of capital (as opposed to temporary losses in share value relating to shifting investor sentiment or other normal share price volatility). In particular, a discount to intrinsic value is sought even for the best of businesses, with a deeper discount demanded for companies that we view as under business model, balance sheet, management or other stresses. Intrinsic value is based on our judgment of what a prudent and rational business buyer would pay in cash for all of the company in normal markets. See also Defensive Investment Strategies. The Fund makes some investments through a special purpose trading subsidiary (the Subsidiary) and may invest up to 25% of its total assets in the Subsidiary.

Generally, the Subsidiary will invest in commodities and related instruments (primarily gold bullion and other precious metals and related futures contracts).
